People say the first step to overcoming mental challenges is seeing oneself. However, since we are self-centered, it is not easy to see ourselves objectively. In my case, meditation enabled me to overcome being an obsessive perfectionist and improve my mental health.
Successful people have already realized the importance of reflecting on their inner selves and managing their minds in their lives. Meditation is to reflect on yourself. A person who grows rapidly is a person who is able to look back on oneself. It is essential to take time to evaluate how I lived and what I need to improve for succeeding and improving myself.
Meditation is my greatest tool for sustaining my next action rather than giving up on my thoughts in the middle. The more I discard, the easier it is to act. I’m discarding anxieties about starting social media when I meditate. As I discarded, anxiety and doubts faded away. Now I started to set a plan for my blog instead of worrying without taking action.
Meditation is helping me accept my managers and co-workers. I used to think other people were the cause of my unhappiness. I realized others were not the problem and myself was the problem. Through meditation, I am looking at myself who judges co-workers, managers, clients and I am letting go of these thoughts I created. This has allowed me to accept where I am and find happiness inside me.
Thanks to this practice, my mind has become much more spacious. I have much less resistance in me now. I can still feel lazy, but it is now much easier for me to just look at my to-do list and start working on something.
If you have the true mind, you can simply do what you do and only do that. This way, you have strength and courage, which will make you act with passion and you can get good results in what you do. When you get rid of your negative mind and have a positive mind, you will not give up.
